-- No Spoilers --
In a brief sentence: the story, the concept, the underlining psychology between strangers, concepts of warped reality we hold onto so that we can function in society, it is all brought into question in this film.
Should you watch it? Yes! You won't regret it... the story and the concept are enough to spark debate... with yourself (of all people)

So if it's so great, why not 10/10? OK, as a viewer, some of the dialog and events that unraveled seemed both irrational and unbelievable... Sorry Uwe Boll (writer/director), the dialog was actually pretty awful in some parts. If any good can come from this review, it will be that Uwe Boll continues coming up with great stories and plots such as seen in this film, but please hire somebody expensive to help write the dialog, just to polish it up and get it to a high standard that we are all so accustomed to seeing in our movies - that was all that was lacking from this being the big hit - there were moments that I felt like I was watching a high school play, and I don't think it was the fault of the actors.
And on that note, Brendan Fletcher (the lead actor) we need to see him starring in a LOT more movies! His acting was flawless even despite the lack of great dialog in some parts... enough so, in fact, that even though the character he was playing seemed inconsistent on paper, he still made it completely believable. I WILL be watching out for any other movies that this man stars in.
So, should you watch this movie despite its flaws? YES. Absolutely!
